Things are never simply ‘goodenough’ for them; there is always room for improvement.Those organizations that have adopted this approach to quality are better off and more able tosuccessfully compete in today’s highly competitive global economy. They have become theleaders in their field. However, those organizations that have ignored the benefits of TQM willbecome the laggards in their field, struggling to survive right up to the time they go out ofbusiness.Bibliography1. Bailey, S.

However, when the bubbleburst many firms quickly abandoned their corporate venturing units. Today, corporate venturingis enjoying a renaissance as firms seek to create value through innovation around the world andalso seek to retain ownership in the value they are creating.
